Tāmaki Makaurau-based five-piece band Marmalade today release their new single ‘Bright’ – a jangly sparkling track laden with a dusting of melancholy and the sweetest harmonies to ever nest inside your head.

With a chorus more expansive and beautiful than the Southern Alps, this is a shimmering piece of pure antipodean indie pop that floats on sky scraping melodies with an effervescent freshness and vitality. Marmalade join fellow New Zealanders such as Fazerdaze, Youmi Zouma and T. G. Shand (to name but a few) in delivering delicious luscious dream pop fare:

This is a band with a big future.

‘Bright’ is out today and available to stream and download here and through the link above. Marmalade will be launching the single at Big Fan in Auckland on 22 June 2023 – details and tickets here.
